Thats about it. Im trying very hard to live more realistically these days and not have an excess of things I dont need. At the ame time im trying to live by the literal definition of the word "need", not the way we usually find a way to define it to suit our wants of the moment.

For me an I charger with par aboard and lipo bag, or alum jack, new work gloves, some tools for work and thats about it. Ooh yeah and for everyone to be safe and show love to another even their enemies or people that have hurt them. I've made that decision some time back and its blessed me in ways I wouldn't have thought.

Slash 4x4 Platinum, TQi reciver, 5000 mAh 25c 3s, and a GoPro 2. (Most likley GoPro will be paid by myself) I will pay for some of the other things myself (GPM 1/16 carriers, 1/16 center diff. and Dirt Hawgs.)

The new axial wrangler kit thats coming out later this month!!! And for my daughter (she'll be 2 in june) to have a great christmas. Cant wait to see the look on her face this year!!! should be awesome

I feel for you guys, I spent 9 years in the army, many deployments. All of the disabled vets should get to go to the front of any line for the rest of there life. Whether that be for your benifits or any thing else. I have many brothers that I have lost or they are disabled in some form. I wish you guys the best of luck, and maybe santa will bring you what you deserve.

I feel you there... I'd love to get a letter with a date for my VBA hearing, November 5 was the 24 month mark of waiting for the appeal's hearing, I've been trying to get my ratings as they should be for 5 years now, it'll be a very nice backpay check, assuming VA Compensation still exists before I get my hearing, I'm afraid if the govt doesn't slow down their spending, it may be a thing of the past

I just want my daughter for Christmas... and maybe another couple thousand rounds of ammo, lol.

Last I heard the VA budget was set for the next decade. Also, most of congress agrees that there is a financial responsibility to care for your disabled vets. were not welfare. especially the vfw's. our wait is just ridiculous sometimes...I dont get how the expect us to live without help while they "figure" this out. My wife is an angel.

I sure hope so, but things I remember a couple years back is being threatened to withhold our compensation checks, along with social security, the only EARNED entitlements given to citizens, if the prez didn't get his way... I'm afraid it'll happen again, and even with funds already allocated, the govt doing it anyway to get their way It's really bad joo joo for people who kind of depend on those checks like me... granted my COLA checks from school help quite a bit, but I only get those every 4 months.

1 more year til I graduate though and can get in to a good web development firm, or start my own business so I can claim my VA as funny money... Imagine the damage I could do in a gun shop or hobby store every month with money that I don't NEED to use to pay bills

I went to the LHS Sunday for a new wheelie bar and some castor block pins and found myself looking at aluminum.. hehe.. Next thing I know I'm checking out and I've got castor block pins, TRX Wheelie bar, and some TRX Blue aluminum castor blocks! Had a grand total of something between 36-37 dollars, not bad I say. I thought the aluminum was going to be more but it was under $20!!
So I'm out bashing around with a couple of guys and I go to clear a jump and I don't make it all the way and I ended up breaking my right castor.. good thing I bought them aluminum's.. got them placed in and all ready to go.

There's one item that can be crossed of the list!
